Spent the day at Masupe Baptist Church. This is a small bush church with no pastor - which seems to be a reoccurring theme. It again highlighted the need for real pastoral training in areas where churches are already established but no legitimate training is available.
I taught from Luke 6 about the theme of giving and Damon taught from Matthew 13 about the sower and the seed. There were 8 professions of faith and a few more that came forward for counseling.
We then spent the time advising the church on finding a pastor and what the necessary qualifications are. By the end, the church had selected and voted on a faithful man and I was privileged to pray for his new ministry and responsibility.
